Hebrews 2

The author warns believers to pay closer attention to the message of salvation delivered through the Lord and confirmed by signs and wonders, lest they drift away, since violation of the law spoken by angels brought just retribution.[5][2] Jesus was made lower than the angels for a little while to suffer death and taste death for everyone, now crowned with glory and honor; through his incarnation, he shared in humanity's blood and flesh to destroy the devil's power over death and provide merciful aid as a high priest.[2][1]
